4298 Park Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457
The 20-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement at 4298 Park Avenue in Tremont, built in 1910 and currently owned by Gabriel Grunblatt, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of heating system problems, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, particularly during the winter months of 2021-2022 and again in 2023. The building underwent inspections in 2022-2023 revealing lead-based paint hazards in Apartment 5, requiring remediation, along with issues including window maintenance problems and a safety violation related to the fire escape.
More recently, in December 2024, there was a complaint about stairs/ flooring conditions, though HPD found no housing law violations during their inspection. The building's exterior and structural integrity has also been a concern, with multiple violations documented between 2019-2020 regarding a disrepair issue with the retaining wall at Exposure #4, which apparently underwent collapse and required repair. These violations led to penalties and an active violation status in 2020. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestations in the past four reporting periods (2021-2024).
More recently, from 2024-2025, there have been regular rodent control interventions, with several baiting operations recorded and some instances of rat activity noted during inspections in early 2025, suggesting ongoing pest management challenges. The building's history shows a pattern of addressing violations and complaints, with most being closed out after necessary corrections were made, though several violations related to inspection certification remain active. The property has shown some improvement in recent years, with no recent bedbug infestations reported and regular pest control measures being implemented, though the recurring heating system issues and recent stair complaint indicate ongoing maintenance challenges. **Please note**: While this report summarizes significant events and conditions based on available data, it does not constitute a comprehensive assessment of the building's current condition or suitable recommendations for prospective tenants.
